"Everything? So you eavesdropped, that's not a good quality in a person Peter." I couldn't look him in the eye already feeling my pride slipping away. Why would I say such a stupid and weak thing? I felt humiliation burning up my spine.
"Did you really mean it? That you loved me?" Peter grabbed my chin and forced me to look him in the eye. Being the stubborn person I was I closed my eyes so I didn't have to look at him. I heard him chuckle. I wanted to punch him. Just because I love him doesn't mean I don't want to hurt him.
"Did you mean it when you said to Wendy that you loved every part of me? Even the part that's scared to grow up?" I didn't know what to say. I was never good with talking to people in general and when it came to feelings I never even tried. Why can't he just let me leave and let me have a small shard of pride left?
"Yes I meant it. I'm sorry you heard I didn't mean for you to hear. I'll go." I tried moving away but Peter held my chin firmly, not letting me leave. I glared at him and felt anger boil when he didn't let go.
It was silent and none of us moved. It was like this for a few seconds before Peter crashed his lips into mine. My eyes widened in shock before I closed them and kissed him back. The fire had come back and was going to engulf me in its flames. It was like we were both battling for control and for the first time I was losing and was alright with it.
"My White Lilly Bird. Your mine and I am yours. I love you my White Lilly Bird." He kissed me again and he lifted my legs to wrap them around his waist.
"I can't believe how much muscles you have." He chuckled into my lips and I grinned. The muscles in my legs were very prominent as well we're the muscles on my arms and I did have a nice pair of abs. He kissed me again and pushed my back into the wall. We kept battling for control and his hands slipped under my shirt taking it off. I growled slightly and kissed back harder.
I started taking his shirt off when we heard someone enter the house. Peter set me down blocking me and turned to face whoever it was.
"Who is it!" He roared in anger. I heard a cry and looked to see Wendy. Tears started forming as she ran out of the house. I expected Peter to run after her but he turned around and faced me instead.
"I hope you know I'm never leaving the island. I'm staying here. With you." I nodded my head and smiled one of my rare smiles. I yawned and Peter guided me to the bed.
"Go to sleep my White Lilly Bird." He wrapped his arms around me and I fell asleep.
"Hello dearie." I looked around for the voice but couldn't see anyone.
"You don't have to see me dearie just listen. Your heart is able to handle loving Peter which for you is a miracle and you should be grateful for. But Wendy will stop at nothing to win back Peter. You need to watch out for her. Or you will lose Peter. I don't care what happens to Peter or Wendy but you dearie have some use to me in the future so I need you to find a way to stop Wendy. I'd rather you not turn to your rage and start destroying those you don't trust because that might be slightly problematic for me dearie. Now good luck dearie and remember magic always comes with a price."
I woke up drenched in sweat. Peter was awake stroking my hair trying to calm me down.
"Did you have a nightmare?" He asked and I wanted to tell him but how? A strange voice said I had to watch out for Wendy. Wendy the girl who is so fragile that the wind could break her.
"Yeah but I can't remember it." I had one thing on my mind and one thing only. To find out more about Wendy and a part of me knows that Peter isn't going to help me, if anything he is going to get in my way.
"Peter I know this is a weird question but how did Wendy even get here?" I looked at Peter and saw confusion cross his face. I wonder if Peter is really as bright as people think he is. How did he not question how she got here?
"Well the first time my shadow brought her here but I don't know how she got here a second time. Why?"
"Mr. Darling said something about a magic bean." Peter's eyes widen when I said magic bean.
"I have to go for a little bit. I'll be back soon I just have to check on something." Peter was about to leave when he stopped and turned back to face me with a large smirk on his face. He quickly crossed back to me and gave me a quick peck on the lips.
"I'll see you soon my White Lilly Bird." He whispered in my ear before disappearing. Now that Peter was gone, I had to figure out what this dream was about.
I ran out of Peters house and into mine. I put on a pair of dark brown pants and a green shirt. I tied up my brown leather boots and was out the door. Thoughts kept racing in my head. Who was in my dream? It had to be someone on the island but who? Nobody I personally know is capable of entering my dreams except for Peter and I know it wasn't him. But I know someone who might know. The mermaids.
I didn't bother bringing Freebird since I had a feeling it would draw to much attention to me so i just started running to the beach. I felt more exhausted then usual. I needed to get back into better shape. When I made it to the beach I had a thin layer of sweat on my forehead. I looked for the mermaids and found Dawn. I ran over to her and asked if she had seen Belle, Aqua or Sophie. She said to go to the lagoon which was odd since they never were there. I made my way to the mermaid lagoon and was surprised to see Wendy there. She was crying and talking to one of the mermaids. What a shocker that she was crying, is she ever not crying? It looked like it was Ariel she was talking to.
"And I just wanted to get Peter back! That's all I wanted to do but that Indian girl took from me. What does he see in her! All she wants to do is hunt, fight and ride horses from what I hear. And apparently she has the heart of the truest spirit meaning it's hard to love because she would feel trapped. So why can't she let me have Peter?! I could love him with everything in me! And she never wanted Peter in the first place she wanted to be free with her sister Tiger Lilly." She started crying again and Ariel reached out of the water and patted her shoulder.
"But I know he still has feeling for me. I know he does, it's just White Lilly getting in the way. I wish she would just leave!" She screamed and I felt the need to throw her into the lagoon.
"Well maybe this is what's best. You did leave him Wendy and you said you wanted to grow up. Peter is never going to grow up and White Lilly is a good person at heart she's just hard to get to know. From what I can tell she is like a wild raven. From what I heard she is trying hard for Peter." Wendy shot away from Ariel and even from this distance I saw the betrayal in Wendy's eyes.
"You want Peter to be with her too don't you!" She didn't wait for Ariel to reply she just ran into the woods. I waited a minute before coming out of the bush I was in and walking towards Ariel.
"I know you heard all of that White Lilly. Looking for Aqua, Belle and Sophie?" I nodded my head and she dived back into the water. I waited for a bit and then saw all three of them pop up from the water.
"Do you know anyone who can enter dreams? Besides Peter." I wasn't in the mood to talk to make small talk I just wanted to get to the point. I looked at all of them while asking and knew instantly that they did.
"Yes we do. We know a few people. Did the person who entered your dream day anything like a trait? Or did you see how they looked?" Aqua asked and I thought about it. I never saw them but they did have one trait.
"They said dearie. That's what he kept calling me. And I know it was a man but that's it." The moment I said dearie they all paled.
"We know exactly who it was and you need to tell Peter. He is a very dangerous man and is capable of horrible things. The man's name is Rumpelstiltskin. Now go! Find Peter and tell him! I can't believe you would keep this from him! Go! Now!" I was shaken up by there worry and urgency but I took off running back to camp as soon as she finished her sentence. I got back to camp and looked around for Peter but of course he was no where to be seen. I saw Felix and ran to him and hoped he would know where he was.
"Felix do you know where Peter is!" I said in a frantic voice. The mermaids never gave warnings unless it's urgent and deadly.
"I saw him go to the beach a few minutes ago. Is everything all right?" I didn't reply to him I just ran to Freebird and rode her as fast as I could to the beach.
I arrived at the beach and looked all over for Peter. I saw the weird ship that brought Wendy and the other people. I tied Freebird near a tree and ran over to it. As I got on I saw and he looked close to tears. I walked over to him and gave him a confused look.
"I can't believe what has happened. Wendy brought here because of a magic bean and she had two of them with her. One for the way here and one for the way back. But in a fit of anger she hid the bean and now won't tell us where it is!" After he said all of it he did start crying. Was it normal for people from England to cry a lot? It seems like that's all they do.
So Wendy hid the bean that was going to take everyone home? Why would she do that?
I didn't even say anything to before I left the ship. I think this is another thing I need to mention to Peter. I jumped off the ship and started looking for Peter again. It took me a little bit but I found him near a cave. His back was facing inside the cave and something was in front of him.
I approached slowly with a bad feeling creeping into my chest and stomach. As I approached I noticed his arms were wrapped around something. Or someone. No no no. I felt my arms start shaking as I walked closer. As I turned to see Peters front I saw something that shattered my heart. It was Wendy. And they were kissing each other. Wendy was clinging to Peter as if her life depended on it and Peter pushed her into a wall and out of my sight.
I ran away when I heard Wendy giggle. I ran all the way back to camp and felt anger engulf everything in me.
I have spend the day trying to figure out my vision. And then I spend it trying to warn Peter about a supposed dangerous man. I finally confess my feeling which I had to develop because of the Oracle and I gave up everything. I gave up my family and everything I stood for! If Peter had just said he wanted to be with Wendy I would have been fine but he said how he loved me. He said he loved me. I shouldn't have let him in. I was right. Love was a weakness and it trapped people. I walked to my house and locked the door behind me. Peter had gotten rid of the charm on my mirror but I knew he could use his magic to see what had happened here, and see the message I was about to leave. I walked right in front of the mirror and gave a vicious smile.
"Almost had me fooled Peter. I guess I was right in the end. Love is a weakness and you became mine. I honestly loved you and I was stupid enough to believe you loved me too. But don't worry I'll do whatever it takes to change my feelings and to forget about them. Do not try to find me Peter or I swear I'll make you regret it." Once I finishes I smashed the mirror into a thousand pieces and I knew that now I was on borrowed time since Peter would soon see my message. I grabbed a few things and made sure I had my raven feathers in my hair. I ran out of the house and jumped down to camp. I walked over to the weapons table and grabbed a knife, a bow and more then a dozen arrows.
Felix tried asking what was wrong when he saw me grabbing weapons. I looked up at Felix and felt guilty. He was a better friend then I ever deserved. I looked up at him and for the first time I hugged him.
"Thank you for everything Felix. Your the best friend I have ever had. I never deserved someone like you. I'm sorry that I can't really show you how much you mean but trust me." And with that I hopped on Freebird and rode away. I rode for a few minutes before I heard him. I heard him even from this distance. Peter. He screamed my name out loud and I could hear the anger, the hurt and the sadness in his voice. I didn't even feel slightly guilty. I kept riding towards the darkest part of the island with one destination i mind. The fairy forest. Then I heard a voice in my head.
I will find you White Lilly. You are mine and I am yours. I will find you and bring you back.
Bring it on Pan.
